Ecuadorian Canelazo | Traditional Cinnamon and Naranjilla-Spiced Drink

0 likes 0 reviews 2 views

 Ecuadorian Canelazo is a traditional warm spiced drink popular in the Andean highlands, particularly during cold evenings, festivals, and social gatherings. It is traditionally prepared by simmering cinnamon sticks, panela (unrefined cane sugar), water, and naranjilla juice to create a fragrant and comforting beverage. The combination of warm spices and fruity citrus notes gives Canelazo its distinctive flavour.

Traditional versions may include aguardiente, an alcoholic sugarcane spirit, but a delicious non-alcoholic version can be enjoyed by everyone. This recipe uses cinnamon, panela, and naranjilla juice to create an aromatic drink that is perfect for serving warm during chilly weather or festive occasions. 

Cooking Method


  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Measure the water, prepare the panela, and have the naranjilla juice ready.
  2. Boil the Spices: Pour the water into a saucepan. Add cinnamon sticks, cloves, and orange peel.
  3. Add Panela: Stir in the panela until it dissolves completely.
  4. Simmer: Reduce the heat and simmer for 15–20 minutes to allow the spices to release their aroma.
  5. Add Naranjilla Juice: Pour in the naranjilla juice and stir gently. Heat for another 2–3 minutes without boiling vigorously.
  6. Adjust the Flavour: Taste and add lime juice if desired. Adjust the sweetness according to preference.
  7. Strain: Remove the cinnamon sticks, cloves, and orange peel using a fine strainer.
  8. Serve Warm: Pour into heat-safe cups and serve immediately.
